Yochus6mm Lepidolite Round Loose Beads Natural Stone Beads for Jewelry Making

Not authentic lepidolite!!

Not lepidolite, looks more like dragon vein agate or dyed crackle quartz, definitely dyed heavily to look like dark lepidolite.

I have been on a lepidolite kick for a while - actually, the very first pendant I attempted was made with lepidolite -- and I have been looking for the right beads to partner with that piece. I bought 8 mm and 6mm and am currently planning a new lepidolite necklace. These stones/beads have a lovely energy. Give them a clearing once you receive them, and you will feel it.FASHION NOTE: I like lepidolite for its properties, but... also.... I mostly wear black, and lepidolite shows up very nicely against a black sweater.

It seems that the gemstone beads that come from China such as Cheavian, Qiwan, and Yochus, have their sizes wrong. They are sending out 4mm gemstones in the place of 6mm. Although their package will still say they are 6mm. But they are not. I don't know about the other sizes. I just wanted to let others know that so they don't waste their time ordering the wrong size. I bought many 6mm beads from these 3 companies and they always came as 4mm. So order one size up if you want 6mm beads. As far as the look of the beads I can't complain. There are no cracks and they are smooth and nicely polished. That is why I still give them 3 stars. Very pretty!

Looks like beads are dyed. This is not Lepidolite!! Zero stars!

I thought 10mm was larger than it is. I wish they sold all of the sizes pictured. I would’ve gotten a larger size but held up to my neck it looks just like I think it should look so I’m happy here. They gave me three extra beads which is good because I was hoping to not have to restring it but unfortunately it’s still too short. I keep changing my rating, ok so I’m almost completely happy. The drilled stone chips I purchased are long enough I don’t need to restring.

Not sure what these are but they are not lepidolite. They look more like amethyst, my guess is that they are dyed crystal, I just don't know what kind but they are very beautiful. Look a little like auralite. I gave 3 stars because they are gorgeous but I needed lepidolite and these are not.

I use these to put into my small paint containers to help mix when I am shaking. These are a decent weight to them for the size. They make a great replacement for the Army Painter mixing balls. They are a few dollars cheaper on Amazon but the same price if they have them at your local store. They make a great replacement .
